and romney has not. the ground game differences are really striking here, and how much difference that makes them just to go to get voters enthusiastic and i suspect the final days that obama's going to be spending as much or more time getting his own voters enthusiastic as he is aiming at those independence. but the early voting has helped. and recover will be early voting in ohio friday, saturday, sunday. that's what the supreme court allowed big limited hours. but declined unanimously to review it. and after an appeals court said that the early voting should apply. the hours are limited but sunday voting is one that in the past has proved to be extraordinary for particularly african-american voters to go right after church. so there is a path for romney without ohio, but it's a long and winding path and then finally just one comment, as you watch these polls, it includes the real politics average which is a terrific thing to do, one of the things were seen in these final days is that in all these swin

the conversation running the romney campaign and the conversation running the romney transition is two different worlds. obama is more complicated a by don't have that many conversations but i honestly believe he's not that dissimilar and it's a very different conversation than the one you have with jack or whoever is really thinking through what obama would actually do in the november and december of this year and in the first six months of next year so i don't think it's impossible. i think maybe it's just the way we have to conduct ourselves which is to pick it extremely quickly and get about the business of governing. i don't buy the argument that partisanship is so bad you couldn't get the democratic votes for the republican budget or vice versa. there will be momentum to deal with the programs with a are reelected they would like more than 50% of the vote given the absence of the third party candidates that will be an unusual such a vision we haven't had a long time with a certain kind of mandate i think. but in any case, i think over the next five weeks i don't think. >> condra

also he didn't call me at romney several times during the debate if romney had been saying one thing during the 22 republican primary debates, he turns ira and when about 180 degrees and jim lehrer did so governor romney, this is a new position. this doesn't match with what you've been saying. explained as a. the role of the moderate is to get out of the way and allow the candidates to have a conversation. but if they're too long winded or if they're being disingenuous in their answers, or if you're avoiding the question, the role of the moderators to police the debate and make sure they are the moderator, not allowed obama or romney to moderate. so anyway you look at i think it was a tarnished mark on jim lehrer's otherwise wonderful legacy. i don't think ms. raddatz will do that. she's good foreign policy reporter, same with mr. schieffer, cbs and can decode from seeming. they're all hard-nosed. i think that there was probably with embarrassment as i did, as you did. i think you hold of these candidates to answer the questions. and if there's an inconsistency as often times always

i now see that the romney camp is claiming that these matters, the $2 trillion figure is made up. that's fine. you can come up, please tell us what you think the initial cost is. because presumably someone there has done the math. not that complicated. one of the point on spending and defense, it is true the total military spending, inflation adjusted dollars has come down very slightly over the last few years. most of that attributed to the end of the wars in iraq and afghanistan, or the drawdown in afghanistan which is pending. most americans think that's a good thing. the base pentagon budget, in inflation-adjusted dollars, remains very close to its historic high. in spite of the supposed speeders you mean relative to inflation? >> yeah, base budget is basically flat over the last few years. and under sequestration, as already pointed out you can go back about 2007 levels which is again historically high point, but under current projection, the base budget actually holds constant and decreases very slightly to the rate of inflation. yes, sir. go ahead, and then here. go ahead.
